I think we all too often forget what the day is all about. Thank you to everyone on the green screen who has either served this country themselves or has family who has served or is currently enlisted.

God bless those from the past and those who serve our country currently!

I do not "celebrate" this holiday, I will be honoring it by heading to the KIA wall in Cypress, then heading over to the cemetery to pay my respects to my fallen brothers

Lost too many buddies to celebrate.. I'll remember, thank God for bringing me home, and honor my brothers and sisters.

Thanks for an reminder thread.

Lost too many buddies to celebrate.

Well said and thank you. Nothing to celebrate. Kind of like "winning" a Purple Heart - it ain't a game show. I don't think people mean to say it wrong, but it bothers me. A lot.

OP thanks for the thread to remind and commemorate.

A veteran - whether active duty, retired, national guard, or reserve - is someone who, at one point in his or her life, wrote a blank check made payable to The 'United States of America', for an amount of 'up to and including my life.'

Garry Owen! Love reading the true reminders. Each are eloquent in their own way, but read the same. Glad Bless those who are watching the pearly gates and gave the ultimate sacrifice

[kumathebear]

Bless them all...

The only way I celebrate is gathering with either friends, family or both. Not interested in the sales or walking around booths at town squares. One thing I always do is record as many "military" oriented movies as possible since stations like TCM plays a lot of them and I am a military history follower.

Thought some would enjoy this pic. It is part of my desk top background and I try to read it every day as my son is career Army. God Bless Them All!
